Light uncovers truth-but in its brilliance, it also consumes what once was. From the dim recesses of an aging empire, a crime lord of quiet brilliance begins to unfurl a design long buried by history. With wealth as his tether and influence as his hand, he draws forth men, machines, and forgotten knowledge, seeking to resurrect an age the world has tried to forget. Far from the noise of power, a canoness lives bound to silence, prayer, and the discipline of her vows. Yet the ache of a missing parent stirs an older calling within her-one she had laid to rest. When she steps beyond her cloister's walls, she carries with her a grace sharpened by years of restraint, and a power the world believes dormant. Across steam-choked rails, along quiet waterways, and through forest paths where secrets cling like mist, their journeys begin to converge. One walks toward dominion; the other toward revelation. Each step reshapes the fate of the empire, though neither can yet see the full shape of the other. When faith meets ambition upon the threshold of a darkening age, which will endure-and which will be eclipsed? ▄︻デ══━一💥 Updating at least twice-weekly

Abu Dhabi. Final race of the season. Two Papayas. One World Championship. Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri used to be best friends, practically a matched set. But somewhere between podiums and pressure, the line between teammate and rival blurred... and then broke. Now they're tied in points. One race to decide everything. The world is watching. The stakes are higher than ever. But when the lights go out, something happens that changes everything, on the track and between them. Because trophies don't matter if you lose the person you were racing for.

I am a beginner writer, and I wrote this story revolving around a traditional ritual called Dyalama (it can have many names according to different sources). Dyalama refers to a ritual which involves the tying of ribbons whilst making a wish. This tradition originates in eastern Russia in Altai Republic (hopefully I used the correct term for the location.) Just a disclaimer that I did do light research on this tradition, I may have written some things inaccurately, but I tried to be as accurate as possible, even using trusted sources. This story isn't meant to be 100% aligned with the Altai region, as I wanted it to revolve more around Dyalama and the themes of wishing.

Sometimes, family isn't born with us - it's found in the quiet corners of our lives. When sixteen-year-old Jyoti, a bright girl from Odisha, writes a sad comment online, she never expects a reply that will change her world. That reply comes from Razzaq, a boy with a kind heart and a calm soul. What begins as a small exchange turns into something pure - a friendship so deep it feels like blood... "Brother from another Mother" But life has its ways of testing hearts. Lies, distance, and misunderstandings slowly drift them apart, until silence replaces laughter. Now, year later, Jyoti writes this story - not as a love letter, but as a promise. A promise to her Bestuu, her brother from another soul, that some bonds never die, even if one side stops replying.

**What if Loki Laufeyson and Tom Hiddleston existed in the same parallel universe, and that universe made them work together as a team?** During a freak incident involving the real Tesseract stolen from S.H.I.E.L.D., actor Tom Hiddleston is injured and rendered unconscious on the set of 'The Avengers'. Blackmailed by the Time Variance Authority with the threat of pruning him to the void, Loki Laufeyson agrees to take Tom's place for the duration of filming. His mission is not only to complete this film and any that follow, but to make others around him believe that he is Tom until he can be revived. Loki raids the mind of the comatose man for memories and quickly discovers Tom is aware of everything happening around him. The two dissimilar men agree to join forces and work together in Loki's body for as long as is necessary. From going through acting projects and mundane everyday tasks to resolving issues of identity, relationships, and life, Loki and Tom face everything thrown at them with a mixture of cooperation, humor, and Loki's signature mischief. But when the props assistant from the day of the accident is murdered, Loki and Tom realize it's up to them to find those involved behind the Tesseract's trail of deception and death before they become the next target.

This is a One-shot, in which Dabi is Touya Todoroki. And he meets his sister Fuyumi, telling her that he still loves her. It's kind of a songfic I guess. At least most parts of the song (If I Could Tell Her, from "Dear Evan Hansen") appear in the fic. The song and the characters used aren't mine, and (sadly) will never be. I'm just using them. The cover isn't mine either. But the artist is really good.
